I own these flats in several colors of suede. They are the perfect ballet flat and now these leather ones join my wardrobe. They are a great neutral shade to wear with anything. I find these ballets extremely comfortable and fit true to size. I always order my usual size and they are the perfect fit. Always a great staple with slacks or jeans.

I think the name "Manhattan Ballet" is very appropriate. They do fit slightly larger/wider than some of my previous Cole Haan purchases, but that makes it the perfect shoe for the New York woman whose feet are mangled from walking miles every day crammed into other too-narrow shoes. They are cute and comfortable and do not squish my feet. The wider fit is a welcomed change for me.

I am happy with my Manhattan Ballet Flats - they are comfortable, presentable and go will with all of my clothes. I carry these with me every time I go out wearing heels just in case I need to change to decent comfortable shoes. My only comment is how smooth (as though there is no grip) on the sole part. I hope they last longer - please provide care tips! :)

I chose the Manhattan Ballet because it reminded me of the Maria Sharapova ballets I already own and love but are no longer available. This color is great for summer and goes with just about everything!

i had to switch to the Manhattan from the ZeroGrand Ballet when looking for a replacement for the Air Bacara. ZeroGrand ran larger and wider than the Air Bacara flats i was looking to replace. The Manhattan as been a good replacement. My first purchase was a black pair back in the fall and they have held up nicely. Very good shoe.

BEST ANSWER:I wouldn't say its fully waterproof, but they do ok in light rain especially because they have a great rubber/non-slip sole on the bottom....but I'd say spray them since they are leather so they are easier to wipe off!
